On Sunday night, Is J"ne) during
Irvine Service 1t the M0ravian
Church, ($pring Garden), a would
he burglar made an attempt at rob
berry which nearly ended in a serious
c~onfiagration. 1t appears that the
miScreant, who must have been we'll
acquainted with the habits of the re-
sidents. gained entrance to the house
occupied by Miss Focke through a
window, which had been inditf"renty
fastened by a wedge, Which he had
no difficulty in pushing out of lis place.
While the thief was looking tor what
he could carry of, he was disturbed
by a noise in the next room, and
thinking discretion the better part of
v%alour, he at once made his ESCAPE,
but in so lasty "a manner, that lie
capsized "a lamp which was bnrnif 6
in the room he had entered. FOrtu-
stately tile oil in the lamp was Of the
description known us safety oil" and
was 0 0 extinguished by the efforts
Of a groom belonging to the place,
who beat out the flames with his hat.
We understand Ina, the noise which
alarmed the burglar was caused by
one of The girls of the seminary, who
feeling unwell in the church, which
is close to the house, came home and
calling out TO the servant girl, dis
aurbed the rascal, who but for the
interruption, might have carried off
a fair amount of plumber. The alarm
of fire caused by the broken lamp,
resulted in the ringing of the bell of
the. Moravian Church. We believe
the alarm spread to the Cathedral,
where there was a general disposition
20 a stampede, and the Rev. Shepherd
who was preaching ut the time. Ind
10 Stop for a while till Bishop Branch
quieted the fears of the nervous ones
81 assuring them that there was no nc
cause for alarm.-Awtisua Observer.
